Bet 100

100.) Stoke v Cardiff - BACK Under 4.5 goals @ 1.10

Pre-bet
This is a game that screams not many goals at you. My only slight reservation is that Robert Huth is missing for Stoke and he is a key component of their defence. But the strengths of both these teams lie in the defensive work, hard-work and set-pieces. Both teams lack a consistent goalscorer in their team and I think each others strengths look likely to cancel each other out. It is difficult to see anything other than a close, tight game with not many goals here. For some reason this game being on a midweek seems to me increase the likelihood of this, I'm not even sure there's evidence to back this up but I've always had the intuition that sometimes midweek games have a greater tendency to fizzle out into low-scoring games.

Result
Stoke 0-0 Cardiff (+£1.80)

Verdict 
Game went just as planned really, two teams did cancel each other out and very few goal-scoring chances in the game. 5/5
